As the West begins to cower before Islamic censorship, the novel Jewel of Medina may not be published in Britain. The Random House publisher of the work, Martin Rynja, had his London house firebombed which provoked the cancelling of the publisher's right to a free press. Author Sherry Jones has called on freedom loving people to protest the indefinite postponent of the work. The book fictionalizes the life of one of the prophet Mohammed’s wives, Aisha.
Despite the London action, the American publisher, Beaufort Books, will publish the book on 15 October.
